DeFiLaunchpads & FundraisingOrganizationsTeams & Businesses

Echo is a platform founded by Jordan Fish, known as Cobie, in 2024, enabling community-driven investments in early-stage startups and token projects.

Overview

Echo is a platform that democratizes early-stage investing by allowing individuals to participate in private funding rounds for startups and token projects alongside professional investment communities. The platform emphasizes decentralization and community involvement, aiming to distribute ownership more broadly compared to traditional venture capital models.

Founding and Leadership

Echo was founded in 2024 by Jordan Fish, widely recognized in the cryptocurrency community as Cobie. Prior to establishing Echo, Fish was a prominent cryptocurrency trader and influencer, known for his insights and contributions to the crypto space. His vision for Echo was to create a more inclusive investment platform that aligns with the decentralized ethos of blockchain technology.

Investment Mechanism

Echo operates by allowing lead investors to create groups that share investment opportunities. Members can join these groups and choose, on a deal-by-deal basis, to follow the lead investor under the same terms. Investments are conducted entirely on-chain using USDC, with participants consolidated into a single entity that invests in the target company. Notably, investments are legally managed by Echo, ensuring that lead investors do not have access to individual funds, thereby maintaining investor autonomy and security.

Notable Events and Accomplishments

Since its beta launch in April 2024, Echo has facilitated over $20 million in funding for new projects through collaborations with more than 40 investment groups. These groups collectively manage assets exceeding $90 million and comprise approximately 10,000 active qualified investors. In September 2024, blockchain project Initia raised an additional $2.5 million in under two hours via Echo, highlighting the platform’s efficiency and appeal among investors. Additionally, Echo’s first UK deal involved Hoptrail, a company that secured funding at a $5.85 million valuation, attracting over 40 high-net-worth crypto investors.

Benefits for Founders and Investors

For founders, Echo offers an opportunity to engage with a decentralized community of investors, promoting user alignment and reducing the risks associated with concentrated venture capital ownership. Investors benefit from access to exclusive early-stage investment opportunities and the potential for financial returns aligned with the success of the projects they support.
